On Friday's Backchat, we talked about the improvements made to the "M" Mark Events, the government scheme that promotes major sports events in the city.
We talked to the chairman of the Hong Kong, China Tennis Association and an analyst to see how these changes will ensure the optimal usage of government resources to boost the SAR's status as a global sporting hub.
After the break, we spoke to a filmmaker and a veteran tour guide about one of Kowloon City's latest attractions -- an exhibition featuring film sets from local blockbuster Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In.
We also explored how this year's top Hong Kong movies are setting the standard for the industry going forward.
